Abstract:

Abstract The purpose of this case study research is to discuss how digital and non-digital learning media can facilitate the development of life skills for fifth-grade elementary school students after the Covid-19 pandemic. This research involved two elementary school teachers, one principal and one school supervisor in the Probolinggo district, East Java, Indonesia. The selection of learning media to develop life skills are: (a) teachers already have visual types of learning media in the form of pictures, flannel boards, specimens, folding paper and photographs, (b) student life skills developed through learning media are limited to knowledge competencies, namely academic skills, (c) constraints in the selection of learning media experienced by teachers in media analysis and needs analysis regarding the content of students' life skills. Academic, social, and vocational skills are analyzed and described in learning activities using learning media. After the Covid-19 pandemic, children's life skills are developed in the following ways: (a) academic skills, where students increase their motivation for the learning process and value learning outcomes; (b) social skills, where students' social interactions with their environment become more intimate, and communication between students and teachers becomes more frequent; and (c) vocational skills, where students more often participate in performance activities, portfolios, or projects, where their motivation is increased for the learning process and the value of learning outcomes. This research examines the impact of learning media on students' life skills. Also identified is how pupils' living skills alter after Covid-19.
